  • Correct answer
    A
    13
  • B
    14
  • C
    12
  • D
    16

Solution

Given,

Two dice are thrown in which we get prime number on one dice and composite number on other,

So possible outcomes will be 2,4,2,6,3,4,3,6,5,4,5,6,4,2,6,2,4,3,6,3,4,5,6,5→12

And total possible outcomes will be 6×6=36

Now probability is given by 1236=13

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
